A new social media-centric exhibit dedicated to selfie-obsessed millennials puts visitors at the center of every work of art and lets them take photos of themselves in front of colorful Disney backdrops crying out to be snapped, grammed and tweeted.

The limited-time pop-up experience features Mickey and Minnie themed rooms filled with selfie-worthy photo ops. The admission fee ranges from $30 to $38 depending on the day and time of your visit.

During a press preview on Wednesday, each room of the Pop-Up Disney exhibit in Anaheim was filled with social media influencers snapping selfies in every direction. With every step, you had to be careful not to walk in front of someone’s personal photo shoot.

“It’s very Instagram worthy,” said Tisha Kay, a lifestyle influencer from Los Angeles who grams at @teamsparkle. “I go to a lot of pop-ups and this one is overwhelmingly beautiful. I wish I could stay in each room all day and change my outfit 10 times.”

Disney will pulse groups of about 20 visitors through the reservation-only exhibit every 10 to 15 minutes. Tickets must be purchased online in advance. Friday’s grand opening is sold out.

Dominique Astorino called the Pop-Up Disney exhibit an “Instagrammers paradise.”

“All of this is basically geared toward and built for social media,” Astorino said. “It’s very viral, very shareable, very millennial.”

The Mickey Mouse exhibit reinterprets the 90-year-old icon for a modern audience.

“We wanted to bring a really contemporary point of view that would resonate with the young audiences,” Disneyland creative director Susana Tubert said.

The goal: Create an immersive and interactive experience that’s playful and creative.

“This is about taking pictures, this is about creating art,” Disneyland show director Jordan Peterson said. “You’re going to get a lot of time to spend in each of these rooms to kind of interpret the room how you want to. Show off the art and how you see it and how you see yourself reflected in Mickey.”

The exhibit is designed to appeal to Instagrammers and influencers looking for the perfect “art selfie” as well as families who want a fun photo aboard the “Plane Crazy” airplane or on Minnie’s bow-shaped couch.

“The experience will change based on who you are.” Peterson said. “When you come in here, we’re giving you the opportunity to play, to explore and to take one of our most beloved icons and really deconstruct it into your own version of art.”

The art exhibit-meets-photo op is part of a year-long celebration of Mickey and Minnie’s 90th “birthday.” The world-famous animated mice, who share a “last” name but have never married, were “born” on Nov. 18, 1928, the release date of the “Steamboat Willie” animated short film.

“It’s an ode to the love of Mickey,” Tubert said. “It’s a tribute to different aspects of the character.”

Mickey shows up in many styles, forms and mediums throughout the selfie museum.

“Every room, as you go through, has been influenced not only by the mouse himself, but by the way that art would interpret that mouse,” Peterson said.

A black-and-white backdrop of the “Plane Crazy” cartoon short puts you in the passenger seat of a prop plane flown by Mickey Mouse as Minnie parachutes to Earth with the help of her ballooned pantaloons.

Hundreds of black-and-white Steamboat Willie plush dolls cover a wall of the “It All Started With a Mouse” room — along with one Hidden Minnie.

“I can guarantee you some of our biggest social media players are going to come and dress purely black and white and then head into that black-and-white room,” Peterson said. “They’re going to pop in crazy, intense, fantastic ways.”

The “Mickey’s Friendships” room features artistic interpretations of the famous mouse by his equally famous friends. Minnie’s painting renders Mickey in pastel pinks and blues. Chip and Dale created a Mickey sculpture out of acorns. Goofy did a Jackson Pollock-like splatter painting of his best bud.

The Mirror Mickey in the neon-lit and mirror-lined “Forever Mickey” room drew the longest lines of selfie-obsessed fans looking to snap a shot with the platinum mouse.

The darkened “Sorcerer Mickey” room offered a brief respite from the photo-crazy rooms in the rest of the exhibit. The Chernabog demon from “Night on Bald Mountain” lurked on one wall. Spaceman Mickey floated through the stars on another.

The Disney design team built in several lower-key transition rooms to serve as “palette cleansers” in between the higher-energy showrooms with theatrical lighting and booming soundtracks. One dimly lit transition hallway featured an undulating ceiling of Mickey ear hats, mirrored walls and streaks of white lights.

One of the final rooms lets visitors step inside an 8-foot-tall Mickey ear-shaped red balloon to get their picture taken amid a colorful bouquet of balloons floating above the clouds. A nearby wall lined with Disneyland snack foods like Mickey ear pretzels and ice cream bars was a popular place for selfies.

“We wanted to make sure that every everywhere you turned feels uniquely Disney,” Peterson said.

The Disney design team looked for locations inside Disneyland and Disney California Adventure but eventually decided the Downtown Disney spot was the best location for the Pop-Up Disney exhibit. Being outside the gates allowed the Disney artists to interpret Mickey in a more irreverent tone than the strict design rules allow inside the theme parks.

“We got to play with style and art and form really for the first time ever,” Peterson said.

The new art exhibition celebrating the 90th birthdays of Mickey Mouse and Minnie Mouse hops on the latest trend of Instagram museums. Selfie-obsessed millennials have flocked to photo-centric pop-up museums focusing on topics like ice cream, pizza, candy and eggs and themes like happiness, dreams and colors.

The Downtown Disney pop-up show follows a much larger Mickey Mouse art exhibit in New York City. The 16,000-square-foot Mickey: The True Original exhibition featured historic and contemporary art work inspired by the famous mouse.

Mickey and Minnie will be everywhere this year at the Disneyland Resort as part of the World’s Biggest Mouse Party. The push is part of a year-long birthday celebration that includes shows, parades, seasonal events, food and merchandise at Disneyland, Disney California Adventure and Downtown Disney.
